• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: So, I sincerely believe there are adequate safeguards such that if the insurer does not pay the agreed commission to the broker, then there is a penalty. The only challenge is that the process of recovering the money seems to be tedious. One has to go through the policy holder’s fund which may take long. view
• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: In conclusion, I want the Executive to rethink this issue. If in the event we pass the Finance Bill that imposes insurance on motor cycles, then the insurance industry must find ways and means of ensuring that premium reaches them from far flung areas probably in a cost- effective manner than forcing them to travel to their head offices to pay or payments done in a system that is difficult to reflect. However, we do not want to undermine and demean the work of insurance brokers. They play a critical role on reaching the insured and following up in the ... view
• 20 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. From the onset, let me sincerely thank you for having given me an opportunity to serve a Mediation Committee. Being a first timer, it was such an illustrative learning process. I will come to that much later. Let me make it clear that, indeed, the issues concerning land use and the environment are so critical to the national development and welfare of this country. They require to be given utmost consideration and commitment in terms of drafting of legislations and regulations to manage the same. On that account, the Physical Planning Act has metamorphosed over many ... view

• 20 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 20 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was surprised that, to justify their hardliner position, The Senators went all over the streets of Nairobi picking non entities, quacks, lay bouts and busy bodies to come and justify that instead of talking about physical planning, we should talk about land use planning. To make this point clear, land use planning is a composite concept that cannot be amended or put to effect through one single Act of Parliament. Going forward, I hope the Government, in fullness of time, will come up with a separate Bill to address the fears that were raised by ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the list of nominees presented by the Committee. It is time we rewarded hard working public servants who have grown through the ranks, having demonstrated competence and ability to serve. However, as we have always said, future appointments must reflect the face of Kenya. We have always asked for this audit. The list presented before the House does not reflect the face of Kenya, but since they are all Kenyans, I support the approval of the nominees. Thank you. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I also support the allocation, especially that on capital expenditure. There has been a pending case for construction of the courthouse in Funyula Constituency, which could not start in the last financial year because there was no capital allocation. I hope they will move with speed to start the court building so that our people do not have to travel hundreds of kilometres to seek justice or to be taken to faraway courts after being arrested for drinking chang’aa . Thank you. view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I stand to support the programme. However, I wish the Budget and Appropriations Committee could give the Agency more money. We have so many cases where courts are unable to proceed because witnesses are intimidated by police officers, especially with regard to complaints against police officers, or other victims. I wish we allocate more money here so that we can accord witnesses more protection and the services can spread all over the country. They should not be restricted to some places. view
